G3588–ὁ–ho

rejoiceth not over the unrighteousness, and rejoiceth with the truth;

τῇ tēa “<the>”τῇ tēa “in the”

The love doth never fail; and whether `there be' prophecies, they shall become useless; whether tongues, they shall cease; whether knowledge, it shall become useless;

ἡ hē “<the>”

and when that which is perfect may come, then that which `is' in part shall become useless.

τὸ to “the”τὸ to “the”

When I was a babe, as a babe I was speaking, as a babe I was thinking, as a babe I was reasoning, and when I have become a man, I have made useless the things of the babe;

τὰ ta “the [things]”τοῦ tou “of the”

and now there doth remain faith, hope, love -- these three; and the greatest of these `is' love.

τὰ ta “<the>”ἡ hē “<the>”

Pursue the love, and seek earnestly the spiritual things, and rather that ye may prophecy,

τὴν tēn “<the>”τὰ ta “<the>”

for he who is speaking in an `unknown' tongue -- to men he doth not speak, but to God, for no one doth hearken, and in spirit he doth speak secrets;

ὁ ho “The [one]”τῷ tō “<the>”

and he who is prophesying to men doth speak edification, and exhortation, and comfort;

ὁ ho “The [one]”

he who is speaking in an `unknown' tongue, himself doth edify, and he who is prophesying, an assembly doth edify;

ὁ ho “The [one]”ὁ ho “the [one]”

and I wish you all to speak with tongues, and more that ye may prophecy, for greater is he who is prophesying than he who is speaking with tongues, except one may interpret, that the assembly may receive edification.

ὁ ho “the [one]”ὁ ho “the [one]”ἡ hē “the”

yet the things without life giving sound -- whether pipe or harp -- if a difference in the sounds they may not give, how shall be known that which is piped or that which is harped?

τὰ ta “<the>”τοῖς tois “to the”τὸ to “what”τὸ to “what”

so also ye, if through the tongue, speech easily understood ye may not give -- how shall that which is spoken be known? for ye shall be speaking to air.

τῆς tēs “the”τὸ to “what [is]”

if, then, I do not know the power of the voice, I shall be to him who is speaking a foreigner, and he who is speaking, is to me a foreigner;

τὴν tēn “the”τῆς tēs “of the”τῷ tō “to the [one]”ὁ ho “the [one]”

so also ye, since ye are earnestly desirous of spiritual gifts, for the building up of the assembly seek that ye may abound;

τὴν tēn “the”τῆς tēs “of the”

wherefore he who is speaking in an `unknown' tongue -- let him pray that he may interpret;

ὁ ho “the [one]”

for if I pray in an `unknown' tongue, my spirit doth pray, and my understanding is unfruitful.

τὸ to “the”ὁ ho “<the>”

What then is it? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray also with the understanding; I will sing psalms with the spirit, and I will sing psalms also with the understanding;

τῷ tō “with the”τῷ tō “with the”τῷ tō “with the”τῷ tō “with the”

since, if thou mayest bless with the spirit, he who is filling the place of the unlearned, how shall he say the Amen at thy giving of thanks, since what thou dost say he hath not known?

ὁ ho “the [one]”τὸν ton “the”τοῦ tou “of the”τὸ to “the”τῇ tēa “<the>”

for thou, indeed, dost give thanks well, but the other is not built up!

ὁ ho “the”

I give thanks to my God -- more than you all with tongues speaking --

τῷ tō “the”

but in an assembly I wish to speak five words through my understanding, that others also I may instruct, rather than myriads of words in an `unknown' tongue.

τῷ tō “the”

Brethren, become not children in the understanding, but in the evil be ye babes, and in the understanding become ye perfect;

ταῖς tais “in the”τῇ tēa “in the”ταῖς tais “in the”

in the law it hath been written, that, `With other tongues and with other lips I will speak to this people, and not even so will they hear Me, saith the Lord;'

τῷ tō “the”τῷ tō “to the”

so that the tongues are for a sign, not to the believing, but to the unbelieving; and the prophesy `is' not for the unbelieving, but for the believing,

αἱ hai “<the>”τοῖς tois “to those”τοῖς tois “to the”ἡ hē “<the>”τοῖς tois “to the”τοῖς tois “to the”

If, therefore, the whole assembly may come together, to the same place, and all may speak with tongues, and there may come in unlearned or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?

ἡ hē “the”τὸ to “the”
